Dad would say the only way to plant a pecan tree is to plant a native pecan... I think he was right, although a brother did have good luck with transplants but had to nurse them.
Bikes, books, and barfing, you've been busy!
That's a good looking bike, and Indian is a great choice. Does momma like to ride? As for the book, make a chapter called, "You ain't gonna believe this $#!^"

I'll buy that book! Glad you're feeling fine, the earth is a more interesting place with you in it.
